I'm full of cold, starting a set of nights and more cranky than usual. I apologise for what I have said, or more to the tone that it may have come across. The sentiment remains the same, preparedness wins, but the expression is changed....
I've just had dinner as well, so everything is always better after fajitas...
FAC come back without everything asked for...

In 1978 I was told by my grand dad that the secret to rifle accuracy is, a quality bullet, fired down a quality barrel..... How has that changed?

out of curiosity Sim, how many calibres does the 28000 round allowance cover?.14000 each of x39 and 54r would do me nicely!!!

I appreciate the sentiment, I agree and have done numerous times. The only point I was trying to hammer home is that increases to ammunition are obviously not a one-size-fits-all procedure. For example; Someone shooting an awful lot asking for an increase to mitigate trips to an RFD several times per month is a different situation to someone needing an increase to open the avenue of batch tested ammunition.
The thing to take away from all this is, when asking for a variation on ammunition, preparedness involves sending current usage of ammunition, regardless of your situation.
I have a lot of respect for you Sim, even more so following this post, and I do appreciate your input as you obviously have a lot of experience.
Heres to wishing you a speedy recovery... for all our sakes...

I could originally hold 600 each of 7.62x39 and 54r and when I sent my certificate off for a variation for the Dragunov I put down to up both to 1000 rounds and it came back no problem
